amazing colors and brilliant idea after the last number of magnificent landscapes with quince trees. Just one question--what is a quince?

It's a very dry fruit, tastes like crab apples, not to be eaten raw, but very perfumed and like a large lumpy apple. Mostly they make a substance called "Paté de Coings" from it which is like a solid bar of dried fruit (think apricots or similar). It's good with duck or in a Tagine. These are the very same Quinces as in the landscape, I pinched them. There is a marvelous film, Spanish I think (or portugese ), called The Quince Tree Sun, all about a painter painting a painting of .... a quince tree. It's a great word, Quince. that's about all I know
